Description

The Lazer Mix of Persian Cyclamen is used in our latitudes as an indoor perennial plant because it does not tolerate temperatures below 5°C (41°F). This hybrid plant, resulting from rigorous selection, is particularly vigorous. The height of this Florist's Cyclamen varies between 20 and 30 cm (8 and 12in). Its long, scented flowering in the heart of winter is an undeniable asset for decorating cool rooms in the house (12 to 15°C (53.6 to 59°F) are perfect for it) during this period generally not conducive to flowering.

Its dark green, heart-shaped leaves are marbled with silver grey and measure 3 to 14 cm (1 to 6in), carried by long petioles emerging directly from the tuber.

The flowers of Cyclamen Laser Mix are solitary and drooping. The reflexed petals along their stem emerge from the foliage from December to March. The 9 colours range from pale pink to crimson red. This large-flowered Cyclamen is known for its exceptional fragrance.
